Our Lakers – 76ers sports betting tip for the NBA game on March 23, 2024 is: LA is actually clearly favored at home against Philadelphia. But in today’s betting tip we also have to take into account that the 76ers have been the Lakers’ feared opponents in recent years.

Lakers vs 76ers prediction: Which face will Maxey show?
On Monday, the Lakers were able to return to winning ways after two defeats against the Kings and the Warriors with a convincing 136:105 at home against the Hawks. LA sits ninth in the West with a record of 37-32. They are currently three games behind the sixth-placed Mavericks (41-29). But Los Angeles is actually pretty much where it belongs this season: in the gray midfield.
Everything about this team currently represents mediocrity. For years, LeBron James has shouldered the bulk of the burden. This time too, coach Darvin Ham’s team has its superstar to thank for the fact that they are still fighting for a playoff place. Not enough comes from the bank in particular. The Lakers are also struggling with a lot of bad luck with injuries this season. The defense is only in 23rd place with 117.5 PPG. The offense is in 9th place with 117.5 points per game.
The Sixers are currently in 8th place in the East with a score of 38-31. However, the gap to the Pacers (39-31) in 6th place is minimal. The 102:115 at the Suns on Wednesday was their third away defeat in a row. Here Tyrese Maxey only got six points. The point guard is currently extremely important for head coach Nick Nurse. Because All-Star center and reigning MVP Joel Embiid has been missing from the franchise for 23 games. Embiid could return in late March or early April.
Until then, Philadelphia still has to somehow stay in the playoff picture. But six of the last nine games were lost. The offense is in 15th place with 114.7 points per game. The defense only allows 112.4 points per game, which is enough for 9th place in the league comparison. The 76ers are also league leaders with 8.5 steals per game. Even in the “Free Throw Percentage” only two teams are stronger. Before the loss to Phoenix, Philly had won against Charlotte and Miami.

LA narrowly leads the record against Philly with 146 wins to 144 losses. This pairing only happened once this season. At the end of November, the 76ers clearly won at home with 138:94.
The Lakers have lost all of their last seven games against Philadelphia. Los Angeles’s last success dates back to March 2020. In the 76ers’ most recent seven games, the over/under score has never been broken.
If this series continues on Friday, the “Under 222.5 points” bet makes sense. For this tip you get odds of 2.05 at Betway. Our Betway test tells you everything you need to know about the betting provider!
Our Lakers – 76ers tip: Win 76ers HC +9.5
When it looks like the Lakers could start a series this season, a setback usually follows. It is unclear whether LA will make the next mistake on Friday at home against the 76ers, but the danger is great. Because on the one hand, Philly has been an absolute fearsome opponent for years. In addition, the home team’s style with a lot of ball possession actually suits the guests very well. However, in Embiid’s absence, Philadelphia needs a strong Tyrese Maxey.
If Maxey only scores six points, like he did against the Suns, the Sixers have no chance. But we don’t think the point guard will have such a bad performance again against a weak LA defense. In the previous three games, Maxey always scored at least 30 points.
We believe that the guests will cross the finish line with a virtual lead of 9.5 points. Our Lakers – 76ers sports betting tip is: “Win 76ers HC +9.5″ with a betting odds at Bet3000 of 1.70.
